Should i sell my Leica R and Contax Zeiss lenses for....

[vincent thomas]

Hi guys


So far my current lens set is as follow is i forget some anamorphic adapter:

LEICA
* 50mm/1.4 Leica R Summilux r3
*35/2 Leica R Summicron Superb

ZEISS Contax Yashica C/Y
* 85mm/1.4 (Germany version)
* 35mm/1.4
* 25mm/2.8
* 21mm 2.8

Im thinking to sell some of then to purchage some modern lenses like these ones:

- ZEISS SONY 55mm 1.8 Emount ( Amazing to what i have heard)
and either a
- ZEISS SONY Sonnar 135mm 1.8 (Same as above)
or the classic Canon 70-200 2.8 IS L II

Vintage manual lenses are great but at the moment im also looking for some portriat lens which will allow me to work faster as a one man, one camera setup...
What do you think? How these 2 new Zeiss lens look? Micro contrast, color , bokek, organic and 3d rendering?

Your feedback will be greatly appreciated...

Thanks

vincent

Af platic crap. Bluuugh. Keep what you have!

Next time you put your lenses up for sale, post your asking price. You had much interest in your lenses, but you never did reply to any of the folks asking how much, so your thread was closed down.

^ agreed.

How I work with my photography, is all manual. The lenses you have are much more beautiful (in my opinion) than those more modern yet plain lenses.
